Frequently Asked Questions

Catchment is a dedicated not‑for‑profit organisation created to ensure that individuals and businesses can make a genuine, measurable difference to Australia’s native wildlife. Every contribution made to Catchment goes directly toward on‑ground conservation actions—not administration—so your support delivers real outcomes where they’re needed most. As the charitable arm of our subsidiary company, Carbon Landscapes, we combine ecological expertise with a mission-driven purpose to protect and restore threatened habitats.

Just as every person has a place to call home, every native species needs safe, healthy habitat. ‘Homes for Habitat’ empowers individuals, businesses, and community groups to create and sustain vital habitat for native wildlife. By supporting this program, you help us deliver targeted conservation work that strengthens ecosystems and gives threatened species a fighting chance.

A typical Australian home sits on roughly 500 m². When you support a ‘Home for Habitat’, you are directly offsetting the footprint of your own home by protecting the same area of native habitat for wildlife. It’s a simple, powerful way to ensure that your everyday life contributes positively to the natural world.

Our Homes for Habitat are positioned across Victoria, Australia on properties that protect high‑value, threatened ecosystems. We’re also expanding our framework to welcome additional landholders with conservation‑worthy habitat—so your support helps us grow the network of protected landscapes across the state.

Your contribution enables our team to carry out critical conservation work—including pest control, ecological fire and water management, and habitat restoration tailored to threatened species. These are applying hands‑on, science‑backed actions proven to improve the health and resilience of ecosystems. When you donate, you are investing in tangible, long-term outcomes for wildlife that need our help now more than ever.

Yes! We host ‘open weekends’ that allow supporters like you to see the real, on‑the‑ground difference your contribution is making. These events offer a unique opportunity to witness habitat restoration in action, speak with our ecological team, and experience firsthand the impact of your generosity. We’ll let you know when and where these events will take place.
